How this is calculated
We search the Property Price Register for closed sales near this property — matching by location, beds, property type, and where available, floor area (±20%). This gives us a set of genuinely comparable transactions.
Each sale is then time-adjusted to today using local price trends, so a sale from 18 months ago is inflated (or deflated) to reflect current market conditions. Where floor area is known, sales are also size-adjusted — a 90m² sale is normalised to what it would have sold for at this property's size. This means the figures you see aren't raw prices — they're what those same homes would likely sell for today, at this size.
Your bid strategy (opening offer, sealed bid range, walk-away ceiling) is then derived from the statistical distribution of these adjusted sales — with conservative safety margins applied when data is thin or dated.
Every figure comes from actual government-recorded sale prices. No asking prices, no agent estimates, no automated valuations.

Methodology
Closed sales time-adjusted to current market · size-weighted where floor area available · no asking prices or agent estimates used.
How adjustments work
- —Older sales inflated to current market level so stale data doesn't skew bands
- —Similar-sized properties weighted more heavily where floor area is known
- —Local price trends factored in when sufficient data exists; no artificial uplift otherwise
- —All figures from registered closed sales only — no asking prices, no agent estimates
Local Market Notes
Property Quality
BER Improvement Potential: Upgrading the E1 BER rating could cost approximately €7,000-€10,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €10,000-€15,000 and reducing annual energy costs by an estimated €600-€900 compared to its current rating.
Space Efficiency: At 66m², this 3-bedroom apartment offers a functional layout, fitting typical family needs for the size, but is slightly smaller than the average of 10 sales of similar broad-type apartments within 1km, which averaged around 70m².
Optimization Opportunity: With a BER of E1, there's a clear opportunity to enhance energy efficiency through insulation and heating upgrades, potentially leading to significant savings and improved marketability compared to properties with lower BER ratings.
Hypothesis: Given the E1 BER rating, strategic investment in a high-efficiency heat pump and improved insulation could elevate the BER to a C rating for an estimated €9,000-€13,000, potentially unlocking a 5-7% increase in sale value due to enhanced energy performance and lower running costs.
